Oh, and ummm, THANK YOU for offering me a frabjulous cake recipe that does not involve a complicated frosting process.I may just go easy on myself and bring this to the neighbors' Christmas night dessert-and-wine-and-coffee-musical-jam-session!

I have made the cupcake version many times - but for some reason (perhaps I am a cook of very small brain) I have never even thought of doing it as a CAKE version.
